The Church Street Community Champions project, delivered by PDT, launched in September 2014 and is currently recruiting volunteers. If you live locally are enthusiastic, interested in meeting new people, developing your skills, and improving the health and well-being of your community please get in touch! These are exciting times and the team is looking for new members to join up and get involved.

Community champions are local people who volunteer their time and make use of their networks to connect friends, families and neighbours with local services, and spread important messages about health and wellbeing. The time and energy the Champions put in is really appreciated and repaid through access to training, support and guidance to help them progress their own careers and goals. The local insight and knowledge of Champions is valued and used to influence and shape how local services are delivered.

We are committed to building a dynamic and fun team with the skills and knowledge to connect people and improve the health of the local community. We will be hitting the streets over the coming weeks so please keep an eye out for us and stop and say hello. The Champions will be going door to door to complete a health survey to determine key local priorities and establish the focus of its work moving forwards.

Please check back regularly for updates and news on upcoming events, opportunities and activities or drop in and see us and find out more about joining our team.
